Re: ivy

Good grief- I'm so glad I ripped all the ivy out of the back of my yard
the first year I moved here. It had totally engulfed the fence and
critters were clearly living in it. So, I ripped, dug and round-up'd it
to death. I do occassionally find a little shoot coming up in that
area, but only about once per season and promptly yank it out. It was a
nasty job to get it out- but I'm sooooo glad I did it when I did.
